1) It Provokes and Instant Response

A limited-time offer provides people with a compelling reason to feel that they need to take advantage of your offer before it’s too late. Including a phone number or link to a website in your advertising makes it easy for them to respond instantly. Nothing makes you click a link like ‘this offer ends midnight tonight’. These call-to-actions can be utilised across your website, socials, direct response TV adverting, EDM's and newsletters.

Assigning a specific phone number, unique URL, promo code, QR code or link that people need to respond to in different ads will provide you with the hard data of exactly which of your ads people are responding to. You can then adjust the ones that are less effective and scale the aspects that were successful. 

 

3. It's Measurable

It’s easy to measure how many people respond to calls to action. Detailed metrics such as cost per lead, visitor to lead ratio, lead-to-scale ratio, sales revenue by channel and conversion rate provide an accurate, detailed picture backed by solid evidence. 

4. It Provides The Biggest ROI

ROI is the most important metric of all. By analysing the success of each aspect of your direct response marketing campaign, you can focus on tailoring your advertising to achieve optimum performance. You don’t need to waste your budget while being unaware of what is really working. 

5. You're killing Two Birds With One Stone
